Patricia Elaine Gregory, affectionately known as Pat or Patsy to her loved ones, passed away peacefully on January 8, 2026, at the age of 80 in Hohenwald, Tennessee. Born on April 11, 1945, in Springfield, Tennessee, Pat was the embodiment of kindness and love throughout her life.

Pat was the cherished daughter of the late Joe Thomas and Jewel Andrews Baggett. She found her lifelong partner in Mr. Thomas Gregory.  Pat and Tommy together navigated the journey of life with love and dedication for an admirable 62 years. Their union was blessed with two wonderful children, Nicky Gregory and his wife Michelle, and Michelle Noll and her husband Steve. Pat’s legacy continued to flourish through her adored grandchildren, Katherine and Rebecca Noll as their beloved Mema.

Her siblings, Martha Benton, Kerry Baggett, and Kenny Baggett, will remember Patsy for her ceaseless warmth and the countless memories they shared.

Beyond her professional pursuits, Pat was a woman of many interests. She was an avid reader, with a love for the stories that unfolded on the pages of her books. Pat also had a fondness for doing crossword puzzles, a testament to her sharp mind and love of a good challenge. She loved to travel to new places and plan detailed and very busy itineraries.  However, her greatest joy was found in the moments spent with her family and friends.

A Visitation for family and friends will be held in the chapel of Adair Funeral & Cremation Services on Saturday, January 10, 2026, from 9:00 am until the time of service at 11:00 am. A service to honor and celebrate Pat’s life will be conducted with the same warmth and love that she shared so freely during her time with us.

 Following the service, Pat will be laid to rest at Bethlehem Cemetery in Springfield, Tennessee, at 3:00 pm. Her final resting place will be amongst the rolling hills of her birthplace.
